The Canadian Scandal.

OTTAWA, Ont, July 29-The sensation
which was caused at the capital of the Do
minion over the startling revelation made
within the past few DAYS as to the traffic In
young girls, in which a number of promin
ent citizens as well as several leading politi
clans are implicated, promises to develop
into a scandal even greater than that Great
ed recently by the Pail Mall Gazette One
scandal following another so closely in the
metropolitan city has incensed the citizens
generally.
Tonight meeting was held under the
auspices of the Society for the Prevention
of Cruelty, with view of devising some
means by which the great stain on the CAPT
tails good name might be removed. Special
legislation, it was decided, would be neces-
sary to attain that end; the matter must
therefore become subject for the next
session of parliament before any law can
be enacted to reach the culprits 1t is pos
sible, owing to the fact that the chief of
police has evidence in his possession which
would criminate several prominent politi-
clans if brought into court, that such a
measure, if introduced In parliament,
would be defeated, guilty members of the
senate and house Of commons, whose
names are freely mentioned, fearing that
their Endorsement of such a measure and
its subsequent investigation would crimi
nate themselves

Indiana Tally Sheet Cases.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 29.-The tally sheet
cases are the absorbing topic here. Judge
Claypool, counsel for the prosecution,
closed argument at noon. At 2 o'clock,
when court reassembled, there was a tire
mendOus crowd DESTROYS of listening to
Judge Woods remarks charging the jury.
The judge spoke extemporaneously for
two hours and received the closest atten
ton throughout. He reviewed the cases
at length and was very severe on defend
ants, in some cases singing them out and
naming individuals.
He quoted langley from the opinion of
Justice Harlan in the Coy habeas corpus
case and reviewed the counts of various in
dictments. 1t was unnecessary to say that
papers were taken and changed, the court
said, it being enough to say that there was
conspiracy to do so. A line was drawn be-
tween forgeries and conspiracy and the
court said the government need not have
proven that conspiracy had been con-
summated.
The jury retired about 4:30. The gen
eral impression is that some of the defend
ants will be declared guilty and the return
of the jury is awaited with intense inter

The Doodle Trial.

CAICAGo, July 29-Even greater inter
terest than usual was manifested in the
Doodle trial today, it being generally I'M
derstood that the prosecution was about
ready to close the case. Much of time
was devoted to introducing documentary
evidence of the stealings of the gang
One important witness was put on the
stand in the person of Mic Mchaels, the
manager of the county board. He con
firmed all the previous damaging testimony
against the defendants, relating converse
tons that had taken place in his hearing in
which the various jobs were discussed and
measures taken to prevent dissatisfied con
tractors from 'squealing." On one occa.
sion when hardwares merchant named
Busse sent word that unless his bills were
paid he would take from his safe certain
docune nts and turn them over to the grand
jury, Commissioner Van Pelt became en-
ragged and wanted measures taken to have
Buses safe cracked that evening.

A Desperate RencOntre.

RALEIGH, n. c., July ga desperate
encounter occurred yesterday at Bridge
water. on the Western North Carolina
Railroad, between six drunken negroes and
q white man named HearsOn, a section
hand. The section train was on a side
track. The negroes entered into an agree
ment whereby twenty were given leave of
absence, while six were TO remain and pre-
pare dinner The six who agreed to re
main got drunk and went away. On their
return they made threats against HearsOn,
who, fearing trouble, went to his shanty
car and locked himself in. In a few min
utes the negroes made an attack on the car.
The door was forced and the gang entered.
The leader drew a pistol and fired twice,
both shots taking effect in Hearson's hip.
Hearson attacked his assailant, and
knocking him down, drew a
knife and cut him in three places, intlict-
ing fatal wounds While HearsOn was
slabbing his assailant another negro ran
and stabbed him in the head twice, after
which he broke leg from a table and
dealt HearsOn blow which rendered him
unconscious.
The negroes, thinking they had killed
Hearson, looked after their comrade, who
had been so badly cut. A number of them
congregated in another car and defed ar
rest, declaring they would kill any one
who attempted to take them. Two white
men took them unawares. showed the car
doors together and locked them, and the
main portion of the gang was taken to Nor
canton and lodged in Jail. Strong threats
are made of lynching the negroes, and 1t Is
probable that they will be hanged by the
Indignant citizens. Hearson's wounds are
serious

Must Keep the Peace.

Ell PAso, Tex, July ga few days
ago a disturbance occurred between the ed
it0rs of the rival newspapers here, Juan S.
Hart, of the Times, and 9th Stein. of the
Inter Republico. which resulted In no
bloodshed, but ended In both contestants
being put under bonds TO keep the peace.
Orth Stein was chafed under his peace
bond. as he claims that he was the party
assaulted. and that he had no intention to
commit a breach of the peace, but the diff
ficulty was forced upon him Accordingly
he instructed his attorney, E. Bledsoe,
TO apply in his behalf for writ OF habeas
corpus in the county court for the purpose
of having the peace bond set aside. Oh
lection was made by the Times attorney
that Stein was not in actual custody, and
that. therefore, a writ Of habeas corpus
would not lie.
The objection was oyerruled, and the
proceedings today resulted in the writ 81
babeas corpus being denied. and STEMS
